Text

1.
<V.> En trinitatis speculum
illustravit seculum

<V.> eya curialiter
iubilando pariter

<R°> taliter hilariter
infantulo concinite
psalite benigne
carmine per insigne.

2.
<V.> En virgo dei filium
parit primogenitum

<V.> nasciturum etheris
cantibus et modulis.

<R°> Canite et psalite
voces puras atolite
Christo incarnato
deo humanato.

3.
<V.> Hic iacet in cunabilis
puer admirabilis

<V.> de celis laudabilis
a nobis amabilis.

<R°> Ergo voces hilari
modulantes et pari
canite benigne
letantur per insigne.
